Mother's Day is, of course, a time for honouring our moms with presents they love, whether we're shopping for them at their go-to stores or surprising them with something small and affordable, yet thoughtful. But it's also a moment for us to reflect on all that the strong women in our lives have taught us, and we'd venture to say that if you're reading this right now, mom's lessons have extended to fashion.
This month, we want to be upfront and honest with you: we're probably going to shop for ourselves while we're shopping for mom too. But we're looking at all that we're buying through a mother's lens, and letting that inspire exactly what we "add to cart."
Whether we're scoping out Kerry Washington's new Aurate New York jewellery collaboration and purchasing a necklace for mom with a matching piece for ourselves too, or picking up a graphic tee with a print that reminds us of the love we share, there's a good reason behind every item on this list. Here are all the products we've got our eyes on this May that seem more like treasures than anything else, half because they're incredibly stylish, and half because they warm our hearts.
Lemlem Halima Mini Smock Sun Dress
"I just bought myself this adorable blue Lemlem Halima Mini Smock Sun Dress ($345). I was dreaming of dressing up again and enjoying family holidays and family photos. I can't wait to wear this sweet dress this summer." — Lisa Sugar, POPSUGAR editor-in-chief
Aritzia Cause We Care Oversized Crew Sweatshirt
"This cosy powder-blue Aritzia Cause We Care Oversized Crew Sweatshirt ($90) is part of a limited-edition capsule that donates 100 percent of proceeds to the Cause We Care Foundation to support single moms and their children." — Dana Avidan Cohn, POPSUGAR executive style director
Hôtel Magique The Blue Set
"Hôtel Magique is an incredibly chic decor brand inspired by hotel vibes. Long car trips and discovering new resorts along the way is a favourite pastime for me and my mom, and she loves to sleep. This Wake Up - No, Thank You. The Blue Set ($30) is right up her alley." — Sarah Wasilak, editor, Fashion
Fivekisses Silk Shorts PJ Set
"So I'm totally not trying to call her out or anything, but my mom's pajama collection could use a bit of a makeover. I have my eye on this Fivekisses Silk Shorts PJ Set ($205) because the material looks so soft and luxurious, and I want her to feel like the queen she is while getting in her ZZZs every night. Time to say goodbye to your tattered, overworn PJ shorts, mom!" — Victoria Messina, editor, Trending and Viral Features
Arizona Oiled Leather Birkenstock
"My mom is constantly on her feet and rarely takes a moment to sit and relax, which is why I'm getting her this extra comfy pair of Arizona Oiled Leather Birkenstocks ($125) to replace her usual indoor shoes. She used to have a pair she loved when I was younger, and now is the perfect time to replace them. They're spacious, comfortable, and I know she's going to be able to wear these for years to come. (Pro tip: size down!)" — Chanel Vargas, editorial assistant, Trending and Viral Features
Our Place Dinner For 4 Set
"Ever since trying out my Always Pan, my mother can't stop raving about it. I think this adorable Our Place Dinner For 4 Set ($250, originally $290) is perfect to get her this Mother's Day. She'll be so happy, I know it!" — Nikita Charuza, editor, Fashion
Zara Flowy Pants With Topstitching
"It's no secret in my family that my mom thrives in wide-leg jeans and dark colours, and this pair of black straight-leg Zara Flowy Pants ($40) would fit in perfectly with her carefully curated collection of black apparel. The pants look comfortable and easy to pair with different pieces, and the contrasting topstitching is the perfect detail to add a little something extra to a monochrome outfit." — CV
Draper James Natalie Sweatshirt in Gingham
"There's a running joke in my family that my mom is Reese Witherspoon's Asian doppelganger, so I will be gifting this Draper James Natalie Sweatshirt in Gingham ($74) from her label. Gingham is a spring classic." — Claire Stern, contributing editor, Fashion
Nannacay Acai Bag
"My mom always had the perfect bag. I was stubborn and told her I would never carry one. Now, of course, I am obsessed with bags. This Nannacay Acai Bag ($499) is on my list for summer — great for errands, holidays, and running around town." — LS
BCBGMAXAZRIA Oversized Square Sunglasses
"Nothing completes an outfit like a great pair of sunglasses, and the BCBGMAXAZRIA Oversized Square Sunglasses ($128) would fit in perfectly with my mom's aesthetic. Sometimes you need to block the sun from your eyes, and sometimes you just need a statement piece that ties your outfit together. Either way, my mom would rock this pair all summer long." — CV
Aurate New York Venus Organic Pearl Gold Earrings
"My mom is allergic to everything but gold (much to my dad's chagrin). These Aurate x Kerry Venus Organic Pearl Gold Earrings ($380) from Kerry Washington's new Birth of Mother collection are the ideal trifecta: sustainable, charitable (10 percent from every purchase will be donated to Baby2Baby, a nonprofit working to provide low-income children with essential items), and inspired by Botticelli's 'The Birth of Venus.'" — CS
Deta Knit Bikini
"Deta Knitwear has a commitment to resourcing the most sustainable fabrics in swim, and pieces are hand-knit from a single thread of yarn at a family-owned factory in Downtown LA. While I'd be purchasing the Curve Top in Cobalt ($125) and matching High Brief in Cobalt ($120) for myself, my mom and I share the same approach to making environmentally friendly decisions. Plus, I always look at this old polaroid of my mom I have from when she was younger, wearing a blue bikini at sleep-away camp. The photo has become a treasure I think about a lot, and it inspires so many of my beach looks." — SW
Mansur Gavriel Cloud Clutch
"This Mansur Gavriel Cloud Clutch ($595) is big enough to fit all of my mother's essentials, and it comes in the most ethereal colour." — NC
Le Lion x Margaux Le Mask
"My mom will be one of those people wearing masks outside and in stores long after mandates have lifted and the world has restored itself to normalcy. She's super safe and health conscious, and I love her for it. On that note, she's been collecting pretty printed masks, and I know she'd love the Le Lion x Margaux Le Mask ($35), a collaboration handmade by refugee women rebuilding their lives in the US." — SW
Joybird Jules White Planter
"Growing up, my mom kept planters all around the house, and they'll always remind me of her love for nature. Now that we live apart, I'd like to purchase a Joybird Jules White Planter ($145-$154, originally $193) for each of us, so every time we water our plants, we'll think of one another. Not to mention, I love the fresh and modern aesthetic these bring to a space." — SW
Kerri Rosenthal Olive You Sweatshirt
"I'm planning on sending my mom love that she can wear all day. This cute Kerri Rosenthal Olive You Sweatshirt ($138) is art as well as cosy. Mom will feel like I am with her, even though we are 3,000 miles apart." — LS
Pehr Romper and Cardigan Set
"There is such a short window for the matching mommy-and-me stage, and I plan on taking full advantage while Sage is still two! This Pehr Romper ($40) and Caftan ($110) are the sweetest combo for a summer weekend." — DAC
Puddle Pieces XL Amoeba Mirror
"I get my love for interior design from my mother, and I just know she would love this Puddle Pieces XL Amoeba Mirror ($650). (Low-key might steal it from her room later on, just saying.)" — NC
FARM Rio x Smiley Patchwork T-Shirt
"My mom collects tees in all different colours and keeps her favourites in steady rotation, oftentimes apologising to her old tees when a flashy newcomer gets introduced to the closet. I know she'd love FARM Rio x Smiley's Patchwork T-Shirt ($60) because the collaboration supports Smile Train, the world's leading organisation for providing children born with clefts with the essential surgery and care they need, all over the world." — SW
Rinat Brodach The Rob Coat
"I'm eyeing this Rinat Brodach The Rob Coat ($293) for a mother-daughter matching moment. The New York-based label specialises in cool, easy streetwear that'll have everyone asking, 'Where did you get that?' — my mom's main goal when getting dressed." — CS
Miansai Mini ID Chain Bracelet, 14k Gold
"Miansai's new 14k mommy + mini ID chain bracelets ($255 each) let you customise a sweet message or monogram that is meaningful to you and your little one." — DAC
Sleeper Maxi Dress Brigitte in Micro Polka-Dot
"I can picture my mother wearing this Sleeper Maxi Dress Brigitte in Micro Polka-Dot ($203, originally $290) all summer long. What's not to love with the dress's delicate pattern and puff sleeves?" — NC
Chappywrap Harborview Herringbone Light Blue Blanket
"I love giving beautiful and practical gifts for Mother's Day! This Chappywrap Herringbone Light Blue Blanket ($135) is designed by a mother/daughter duo and is the perfect oversize indoor-outdoor blanket. It's so soft, machine washable, and makes a very sweet gift." — DAC
Tach Clothing Prisca Cardigan
"Founded by sisters in Uruguay, Sabrina and Patricia wanted to pay tribute to their family's legacy of working with clothing all throughout their childhood and founded Tach Clothing. With a focus on sustainability — each piece is handmade using the wonderful wool and leathers that their country is known for — the Prisca Cardigan ($275) is a gift any mama would love." — DAC
Eberjey Gisele Printed Short Sleeve and Cropped Pant PJ Set
"My mother loves a cosy pajama set (and so do I!). I love how cosy all of Eberjey's sets are, and this Gisele Printed Short Sleeve and Cropped Pant PJ Set ($135) is too cute!" — NC
Anthropologie x Super Smalls Lock and Key Necklace Set
"My daughter loves to play with my jewellery, but most of my things are too delicate or not kid-friendly. Designed by a mother of three, this Anthropologie x Super Smalls Lock and Key Necklace Set ($44) is the perfect gift for us to wear and play with together." — DAC
BiRite Studio Colonna Stool by Ettore Sottsass for Kartell
"I'm planning on getting this BiRite Studio Colonna Stool by Ettore Sottsass for Kartell ($430) for myself, and I wanted to get a matching one for my mother in a different colour as well! It's such a statement piece, and she can place everything from photos to plants on it!" — NC
Weekday Ricky Recycled Wool Belted Coat in Khaki
"A firm believer in the rules of fashion, my mom knows that sometimes your jacket is your outfit, which is why this Weekday Ricky Mid-Length Coat ($114, originally $237) would be the perfect addition to her wardrobe. Even in the warmer months, an outfit can always be improved with the right coat or shrug, and this one deserves to be added to the cart ASAP." — CV
Horti Order a Jungle
"I've tried Horti's services in the past, and I love how simple and easy it is. I would love to send the brand's Order a Jungle ($70) package to my mom this year." — NC
